<p>Capcom has lifted the curtain on what they are working on for <em>Street Fighter V</em> and the updates that they will be coming out with in June.</p>
<p>They are working on a<em> </em>Story Expansion that is five chapters long and will run about 3 to 4 hours titled “<em>A Shadow Falls</em>,&#8221; it will be released at the end of June as free DLC.</p>
<p>The storyline takes place between the events of <em>Street Fighter III</em> and <em>Street Fighter IV</em>. This is the first time in the franchise&#8217;s long history where players will be able to have this type of cinematic experience.</p>
<p>The story is that of good versus evil, with the Shadaloo organization, World Warriors. Shadaloo sends out seven &#8220;Black Moons&#8221; that give M. Bison unthinkable power and encases the world in darkness. Seeing these moons appear, Ryu, Ken, and Chun-Li set out on an adventure. While doing so, they run into the World Warriors and set out to put an end to what is happening.</p>
<p>All six DLC characters will be playable in the story as well. Alex, Guile, Ibuki, Balrog, Urien, and Juri will all be available to players.</p>
<p>In other SFV news, gamers will earn &#8220;Fight Money&#8221; from completing the story and a harder difficulty will unlock once players finish the game on normal difficulty, which you can also earn extra Fight Money from:</p>
<ul>
<li>Normal Mode= 30,000 FM</li>
<li>Extra Mode*= 50,000 FM</li>
<li>TOTAL= 80,000 FM</li>
</ul>
<p>Capcom will no longer be introducing Zenny to <em>Street Fighter V</em> as a real money currency option. From now on they will be using the PlayStation Store and Steam to carry out real money transactions. Fight Money will stay as the in-game currency that gamers will receive. However, they will allow players to outright buy Fight Money through said stores if they so choose.</p>
<p>Below are the Fight Money to real money equations:</p>
<ul>
<li>New Character &#8211; 100,000 = $ 5.99 / € 5.99</li>
<li>New Stages &#8211; 70,000 = $ 3.99 / € 3.99</li>
<li>Alternate Stages &#8211; 40,000 = $ 1.99 / € 1.99</li>
<li>Story Costumes &#8211; 40,000 = $ 1.99 / € 1.99</li>
<li>Premium Costumes &#8211; $ 3.99 / € 3.99</li>
</ul>
<p>The premium Battle Costumes for all characters released so far will go on sale in June and will be available for purchase with real money only.</p>
